5 Things to Expect
Eminem’s Highly Anticipated Concerts in Saudi Arabia and the UAE
A Star-Studded Performance
Eminem, the American superstar rapper, is set to perform at MDLBeast Soundstorm in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from December 12 to 14, and at Abu Dhabi’s F1 Yasalam After-Race Concerts on December 7. This is not his first time in the Middle East, as he has previously performed in Abu Dhabi.
A Start Off Stage
Eminem often opens his concerts with the song "Greatest". He can be heard spitting the lyrics off-stage and stirring the crowd before making his grand entrance. In 2018, he released the single "I’m still the greatest in the world", giving Muhammad Ali energy.
Medley of Classic Songs
During his last concert in Abu Dhabi, Eminem performed a medley of his hits, including "My Name Is", "The Real Slim Shady", and "Without Me". The trio combines his fast-paced, joke-driven tracks, and ensures the energy remains high until the end of the show.
Eminem Lookalikes
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up? For the unversed (or Gen Z), Slim Shady is Eminem’s alter ego. Ahead of the Eminem concert, we’re expecting Garnier’s blonde hair dye to be out of stock. Eminem played into this trend with the song "The Real Slim Shady", and the music video saw a factory creating lookalikes of him. And, at the MTV Video Music Awards, he even performed with the doppelgangers.
Guest Appearances
Eminem has collaborated with artists across genres, from Dido to Rihanna. On stage, he has not only been a surprise guest but had surprise guests at his concerts. During Ed Sheeran’s +-+x Tour, Eminem joined the Detroit show for the songs "Lose Yourself" and "Stan". When Eminem was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler sang the vocals to "Dream On", which was sampled in Eminem’s track "Sing for the Moment".
The clocks run out, time’s up, over. All world-class concerts should leave you wanting more – and Eminem tears the roof off like two dogs caged. During his live tours, he usually leaves his monster hit, "Lose Yourself", until the end. The song has more than two billion streams on Spotify and 1.3 billion views on YouTube. The song featured on the soundtrack to "8 Mile", and won Best Original Song at the Academy Awards. So, sing with him, sing for the year.
Conclusion
Eminem’s concerts in Saudi Arabia and the UAE are highly anticipated events that promise to deliver an unforgettable experience. With his iconic songs, energetic performances, and surprise guests, this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss.
